LON DON TUESDAY EVEri ING, SEPT_VMBER 2,5, 1838. en,it=mmmaamm WARWICKSHIRE MEET ING GREAT;MASONIC (From the Royal Leamington Spa Courier.) The Officers of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Warwick shire held their annual meeting at the Castle Inn, Nuneaton, on Wednesday last, which was numerously attended by the highly respectable members of the fraternity resident in Coventry, Birmingham, Leamington, Warwie‘k, and many other places within the district. The Brethren were pre sided over by Brother N. L. Torre, D. P. G. M., and it was a source of peculiar gratification to all assembled, to find that venerable and exemplary Minister of the Established Church —the Rev. F. P a lmer —discharging the duties of P. G. C., with all the zeal and fervour cf his earlier days; for where ever its meetings are so characterised, it is another practical proof of the tendency of the Craft to induce " a I+Zve of virtue, generosity, and philanthropy in its most extended sense." After a variety of business was transacted connected with this Province, dinner was announced at half-past four, and was served up in a style which reflected great credit on the landlady. The meeting was marked with that order, preci sion, and regularity which are ever leaning characteristics of masonry, and which never fail to produce social harmony and fraternal 'fellowship. In the East sat the R. W. D. P. G. M. ; in the West, Brother Douglas, who officiated as S. W. ; in ehe South, Brother Davis (of Coventry), J. W. ; on the right of the chair sat the Rev. F. Palmer, P. G. C. ; and on the left Brother Northhouse, P. M. , from London. After the removal of the cloth " The health of a mason's daughter—her gracious Majesty the Queen," was drank with tremendous applause. " His Royal Highness the Duke of SMSeX. Grand Master of the Masons," was given with the full masonic bonows, which were not omitted when the brethren of the " mystic tie" pledged a bumper " to the health of Earl Ferrer!, P. G. M. for this county." The D. P.G. M. rose and introduced " The Health of our Rev. Brother Francis Palmer," whom he eulogized as a Ma son of long standing and unwearied zeal. The toast having bees drank with the accustomed honours, the Rev. Gentle man, in very brief terms, acknowledged the warm reception given to it, and expressed his desire to assist the cause of Ma sonry ie general, but more particularly in the Province where he had so long held an important office. The S. W. next addressed the Brethren, in proposing " the health of the D. P. G. M.," of whose anxiety to uphold the high character which the Craft had ever maintained, as well as his desire to see its genuine principles become more widely known and appreciated by liberal-minded and educated men— no one, who had witnessed his efforts, could entertain a doubt. The toast having been drunk with Masonic honours, The R. W. CHAIRMAN concisely returned thanks, express ing his attachment to Masonry—his earnest hope that in this Province more particularly, an unexampled degree of success would attend the exertions of those who sought to advance its Christian and philanthropic objects; and concluded his re marks, by stating that there was a Brother present on that occasion, to whose observations upon the origin and advan tages of Masonry they would all, doubtless, listen with more then ordinary interest. He would propose " the health of Brother Northhouse, P. M., and success to the Freemasons' and General Life Insurance Company."—( Drank with honours.) Brother NORTHIIOUSE, P.M., and Parliamentary Agent; expressed his obligations to the Provincial Grand Lodge for the honour done him, which he was not so vain as to imagine arose from any merits of his own, but from his professional connexion with the institution associated with his name. He had been requested by the R.W.D. P. G. M. to express his views of the character and objects of masonry, and the way in which the Insurance Company might be made con ducive to its advancement. The former was no trivial task, surrounded as masonry was with the halo of many ages—its early history hid in the deep shadows of remote antiquity— adorned as it had been by names the most illustrious, and science the most profound—seeking as it did the formation of a great community of all nations, tongues, and people, with a language common to all—symbols understood by all, and one great object felt and acted upon by all—glory to the Great Architect in the highest, and on earth brotherly love to the craft, of whatever country, complexion, or condi tion.—(Masonic cheers.) There were lour distinguishing characteristics of masonry. The first was its wonderful an tiquity. Who can date its commencement ? who can se. at such a period no indications of masonry were extant"? Shall we go to the Aborigines of our own country ? There, among the Druids,' in the ornaments of their bodies, the man ner of their ceremonies, the formittion of their altars, what intelligent brother can fail to recognise mary of the symbols of masonry? Go up the stream of time still higher, and you will find records of the intercourse for tin between the Phoenicians and the early Britons, which sufficiently accounts for the mode by which our aboriginal fathers obtained pos session of those symbols which marked a more advanced stage of civilisation than that to which they had in other respects arrived. Go from Phoenicia to Egypt, and examine the ordeals of Isis and Osiris, and you will be astonished .with the closeness of their affinity to much of the ceremonial Of masonry, while many of the symbols of each seem to be so strikingly similar as to destroy the possibility of a merely accidental c onformation. If not accidental, whence arose this singular coincidence Which borrowed from the other, masonry from mythology or mythology from masonry There is one fact which, to a close . observer will determine d this question. One great and gl o pous—the l most fretat ever sleep l ess , e ver luminous, ever present E va that we a d o r e , they knew not to this height they never ascended—the Sun, Moon, and Stars they worshipped, but the Light of Lights was beyond their conception; to the Temple they did that homage which the mason rende rs alone to its Great A rc hitect ; their religion was bounded by the physical while the Etta shows that the Brethren of our Order in htletea'reonm% t:ist ages of antiquity soared to a Temple not made w i t h hands —to an • 'ar Al not of the earth, sea,or skies, but „ , s • ' s t e m of systems, to the omnipotent, omniscient, through the omnip r esent Architect of the Universe.—(Masonic cheers.) the most probable origin of masonry, as a sys- In his mind, and • with signs secresy, was the captivity of the tern connected .who _being a proscribed race—their mil- Hebrews in Egypt ; gion denounced —their children murdered—sought in caves and in deserts, by mystical words and mystical symbols, to wors hip the I their fathers in secrecy and in safety—to he a h o ly brotherhood rh oo d known to each other be e • s m o e f a s n u s h past find tenrdracnoe:lnd ing out, and o. thediscovered, g)l3 caverns, e t for on astronomical principl es — upon t h e id ea only accou . could be better seen from the bottomrob b e i f t t a were that the stars than the surfacend of the earth—there in a ll by the mystical union of masonry P and religion was held the held, Isof Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jeero worshipped 'gion was esGetive breihren.—( Masonic cheers.)

The second characteristic of Masonry ..—(Great s , was the vastness of its extent—go where you will you meet almost from " Indus to the Pole" —aye, it It r eached e tan and under the burning suns of I - Ln os . amid the chilling snows of Canada, were lodges to receive. and brethren to welcome you. The wandering brother —an extle it might be from his native land, or tossed by the billows of the dee amid a people whose language he spoke net, whose manners . he knew not—house and as he would imagine friendless on the face less, penniless, of the earth, with scarcely a ray of hope to flit across the dicary prospect, his mind gloomy, or it might be sunk in de spair—suddenly, he discovers a brother—the universal language of the mystical union is uttered and answered—his wants are relieved—his soul is comforted, and he goes on his way rejoicing.. Thus indeed may we exclaim with the poet— Should fate command us to the farthest verge Of the green earth—to distant barbarous climes, whence first the sun Gilds Indian mountains, or his setting beams Flame on the Atlantic Isles— brethren may be found to cheer and to succour; the mind sinks not in the sadness of its own solitude, and even the very circumstance of being a Mason, the power of claiming and the certainty of: receiving sympathy, is in itself an Iris of Hope amid the storms and tempests of this troubled life. It also en ables us to feel with the Bard of Eden, that— He that bath light within his own Blear breast, May sit lithe centre and enjoy bright day. —(Cheer:.) The third characteristic of masonry is the sub limity of it s principles, or rather principle, for it may be smeared up in one word, Love. The passion that burns in :he Seraphim and enkindles the glories of the Cherubim, is the all-pervading spirit of Masonry. It is in essence and substance brotherly love. Where charity is absent, it never can be present; and this should ever be borne in maid by 11 „..''e• who may f ee l t o o anxious a de.ire for the honours of orace—the trappings and jewels of distinction—in whose bosoms jealousy (.) . r envy or anger may raekle—'.hit these very jewels are the eyrnbuls of opposite feelings, the outward and, visible signs of en inward and spa ituel grace, and that withnut charity and brotherly the blazonry of he • love, such jewels would be but , cris and the pmssssion of such offices the desecration ofpniasnyn'tv.—(Chee"*) Though brotherly love Was the object ef masonry, it was rot its end ; it was not t r be imsgined that the chivalry of its varicus orders— trs Terr.plar; Knights of St. John , &c. , were intended to be m ere l y idl e and orearn-ntal titles the true Mason felt I- , the whole family of man, and perhaps he could not better exemplify this feeling than by men tioning t.vo c ircumstances that occurr e d d ui i n rr h' s residence in Lincolnshire, in which 'two innocent beinee, one both morally an d legally, and the other morally guiltless, were saved from an unjust and igno miiious death by the active exertions of Brother Brocklesby, Brother Sanders (F. rarerly of Stratford-on -Avon), Brother Colemel Sibtherp, and another brother, who in other respect% had been in opposition to the Gallant Colonel—they. in one case, after petitions from the committing Magistrates, iron thousands of individuals, backed by the county Members, anc: the recommendation of the Jury, had failed ;—when all hop seemed to be gone—when the Home Secretary had replied in answer to every application that he saw " notLing . in the case to prevent the law taking its course"—they persevered env ceased not till they bad convinced the Government of the cross injustice as well as savage cruelty of the sentence, and the rescued victim yet lives to thank the Great Architect And the humble brethren that worship him, for being saved by th; plilanthrophy enkindled by Masonzy.—( Great cheering.) The fourth characteristic of Masonry is the perfect equality of its constitution. It knows no distinction of persons—the proudest Prince in the first degree, is beneath the lowliest peasant in the second or third, and is compelled to acknow ledge his inferiority. Masonry especially confirms the language of the poet— Worth makes the man,-and want of it the fellow ; The rest is naught but leather and prunella. Some time ago, while on a visit to a distinguished brother, the P. G. M. of a great county, and an eminent Member o! Parliament, he had had the good fortune to meet the gallant Sir Sidney Smith, who had stated that, on one occasion he, though a mere commoner and a foreigner, from his being a higher Mason, presided over 12 Sovereign Princes ; a most eonvincing proof that masonry levels all distinctions, save its owne—(Cheers.) Let those then, who calumniate masonry —who scoff at it because they do not understand it—let them look at its leading characteristics—its , fathomless anti quity—its boundless extent—it : 3 ceaseless benevolence—its brotherly love, and its sole distinctions of science and virtue, and allege if they can, aught in its theory to justify their slanders.—(Cheers.) Nay, more, let them look at what it has effected—let them survey the noble Cathedrals of eur Lind, and ask who were the builders ? Who was of Wykeham ? Who William of Wainfleet ? Who Inigo Jones? Who Sir Christopher Wren ? With a host of others, ho have adorned the land by their science and their genius?— Why Masons! brother Masons I—(Grcat cheering.) Tyrants have opposed the craft at all times; but, like the palm tree, the heavier they oppress it, the more towering its growth. Ferdinand of Spain, and Don Miguel of Portugal, dared to denounce negroes, Constitutionalists, and Freemasons—but our brethren, who as brethren have nothing to do with poli ties, laugh them to scorn. Others have opposed masonry on more piatiAble grounds, by pointing to the differences between brethren, and the occasional forgetfulness of the symbolic co lour of our apparel. But does masonry promote anger and strife ? Does masonry promote intoxication and irregularity ? You know it does not. You know if these evils do take place that they are not the consequences of masonry, but exactly the revers,: ; for masonry, as well as Christianity, teaches us that " our bodies are the temples of the living God ;" and the EYE that we ought to have ever before us, speaks trum pet-tongued, " Thou God seest me." No doubt, however, there are practical abuses—from the spirit of masonry being neglected or lost sight of, Lodges fall into decay, and the Ordec itself into disrepute—the tearful words in Italic type appear in the calendar, " erased by order of die Grand Lodge." Now, here it is that the Freemasons' General In surance Company will come into beneficial operation with the tenth of its profits appropriated to masonic purposes under the eye of each Provincial Grand Lodge, temporary difficulties may be relieved, Lodges need Lot be erased while there is a hope of their being revived—and, in a few years, such a sum will be forthcoming, as will, doubtless, form a large and permanent fund for all the objects of masonry. (Here brother Northhouse entered into a variety of details, to show the great advantages of the Insurance Com - pally in its options of a provision for children, a provision for old age, occasional loans on the securities of the policies, in creasing or decreasing premiums, according to circumstances, &e. ; nbile he demonstrated the certain profits of the institu tion from the fact, that Denominatical Offices have a great ad vantage over others, as an immense majority of persons not of such denominations, are always disposed to insure with offices tacked by large and respectable bodies ; and the tables of the increment and decrement of human life, compiled by Dr. 1- . .eysham. at Carlisle, by Babbage and Morgan, from the Equitable Experience, by Fiulayson, from the Government Annuities, &c., render the returns a mathematical certainty. ) He concluced by expressing a hope, that masonry might be better known—that its own brethren might feel more and more ardour in its great objects—that their zeal might be enkindled, their amity extended, theirabours of love followed by a dif '-fusion of happiness and science—and that, with this Institu tion at their back, they might have greater means of showing to the uninitiated world, how delightful a thing it is for " brethren to dwell in unity," whose chief object is to prove that a good Mason can never be a bad man.—(Masonic cheers.) By thus cultivating the nobler virtues of masonry —by being " a light 'befGre men"—by abjuring all petty feelings and wcrking far the common good—by studying to bear and fo,beer—by feeling that though their faith was sublime and their hope glorious, " CHARITY was the greatest of all"—by viewing, in the language of a modern philosopher, their "ceremonies as only the guards of their essences," and their jr-weis but the types of the jewels within—they would !earn to mount, the steps of Jacob's ladder, from the lodge be low to the Lodge above; and the GREAT MASTER of all would enable them to soar from "system to system," from glory to glory for countless ages, ashen Time should be no more : " The stars may fade away—the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years: But LOVE shall flourish in immortal %oath Unhurt, amid the war of e l ements , The wreck of matter, and the crash of worlds 1" (Great masonic cheering. ) " The health of Broiher J. Sharp, jun., of Leamington, was then given with masonic honours, Brother J. SHARP, in reply, said, upon the compliment pail himself he had nothing to observe, further than to thank ;hem most sincerely for the kind reception given to the men ;ion of his humble name-; for on such occasions as those, higher thoughts than personal ones should fill the soul ; and those thoughts were naturally directed, with somewhat of exultation, to the great, advance of masonry, whereser the purity of its principles—the importance cf its objects—and the vast influence it posse;sed in the social fabric of man, were properly developed.—( Loud cheering ) Reference had that day been made to an institution, which offered a secure and profitable mode of investing capital—an insti tution, which, moreover, was recommended to their notice by the assurance that a share of the profits of the new Company would be appropriated to such benevolent purposes as Pro vincial Lodges might direct or approve. The capitalist would, unquestionably, regard such a society, f: oral the variety of new nodes that would be introduced for the augmentation of capi- tal, with feelings of satisfaction ; but, among other advantages not ltss important, was the never-failing source which the so ciety would present, to persons of provident habits of comcort in old age.—(Cheering.) And that reflection reminded him of another institution which deserved a generous appree.:a ioa at the hands of every genuine Mason, sines the princi pies which it recognised, N 7 cre based upon that divine quality of the mind and heart " which is twice blessed, since it blesseth him that gives and him that takes ; and becometh the sceptred Monarch bAter than his Crown." He need scarcely say that he alluded to the pro.Pcted Asylum. for Aged and Decayed Masons.—( Hear, hear, and cheers.) It was the support of such institutions which tended to advance he interests of the fraternity—to chasten its character—to .oint out its peculiar beauties ; and to render Masons wo,:thy of the Scriptural aaplication—" When the ear hea r d me, blessed me, and when the eye saw na‘•, it gave witness to me because I delivered the poor that crtcd, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help Lim ; the blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me, and I caused the widow's heart to leap for joy."—(Cheering.)

Brother NonrimotTss proposed the heAth of his friend, whom he had long known as the ornament and philosopher of masonry the Rev. Dr. Oliver, D. P. G. M., of Lincolnshire. The brethren separated about nine o'clock, highly delighted with the i:liellactuality and harmony which prevailed. On Tuesday the inhabitants of the little village called Clagton Heights, rear Halifax, were extremely agitated from the following dreadful circumstance : Sarah A ma Bland, a young woman r f weak intellect, had, a few days previously, ai:en birth to an illeg t:mate male child; as she could not get any means of supporting the infant, the wretch e d g i r l clasped it round the throat and strangled it. She then went into the orchard, and, taking a knife from her pocket, she cut her throat with it, but did not divide the windpipe. Her brother, who was ill in bel, saw her attempt the act, .and gate an alarm ; in consequence of which she was given into custody. In the evening a coroner's inquest sat on the body of the child, at which several surgeons declared that the infant's death was caused by strangulation, and a verdict of wilful murder against the wretched mother was returned. The Coroner issued his warrant for her committal.—York Herald. On Wednesday an inquest was held at the Wool pack Inn, Sr. Botolph-street, an the body of a young man named Thomas Osborne, who was found hanging to a large h mgh in the hedge inclosing the Ordnance Field. Deceased was found abou: half-past six the previous evening, and though. on being cut down, there were symptoms of animation, he soon expired. It appeared from the evidence that for the list twelve months he had been paying his addresses to a young woman named Emma Scrjeant, who discarded him a short time ago in consequence of his unsteady conduct, and this, it was thought, WPS the cause of the act. He was seen to very deli berately select a piece of cord from his aunt's outhous_o, Magdalep-street, and half an hour alter he was found hanging. The jury returned a verdict of filo de and the body was i oterred in St. Giles's chutchyard at half-past eleven the same night, without the rites of Christian burial.—Chdeayforai Chronicle.

The hustings were erected near the Stand-house, and in such a position that they were surrounded by an amphitheatre of at least fifteen acres, every person upon any portion of the ground being enabled to see all that passed. All along the line of road from Manchester the footp iths were thronged to excess, and in the urea before the old Collegiate Church, which overlooked the line of pro cession, there vv, re many thousands of females assembled. By twelve u'olock one half the ground was occupied, and the immense multitude even at that time presented a truly awici appearance. Before one o'clock, however, the ground was completely occupied, and the meeting then was certainly the largest that hits ever taker, place is the British empire—not less thAt 300,000 persons could have then been present. As the various se v eekers arr:vcd upon the hustings they were loudly the (red.
